The only one I have problems is the Paramounts app.

Every now and then-- the most recent being my attempted viewing of the 
SOUTH PARK Lizzo movie-- the show will play with no problem but it's 
designated with a small LIVE in a red box under the progress bar that 
pops up when you navigate within a show. If it has that LIVE box, then 
none of the navigation functions work-- no fast-forward, pause, or 
rewind-- which would be frustrating enough, but if you don't notice the 
little LIVE box and try to use any of those functions, it dumps you back 
to the very beginning and there's no way to get back to where you were.

This happened to me with SOUTH PARK. I watched about 80% of it and then 
hit pause to go use the can, at which point I was instantly dumped right 
back to the beginning and only then did I notice the LIVE graphic under 
the progress bar. So now if I want to watch the final 20% of the movie, 
I have to literally just set it to play from the beginning and wait for 
it to get back to where I was.
